Stung!

I have been stung by a jellyfish!

Destin RV park

Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't wrote for a long time. First I'm going to tell you about Dry Tortugas National Park. Fort Jefferson, the 3rd largest fort in the United States, was built there. There were no battles at the fort, though, which made it kind of useless.
After that we went to Clearwater to see our relatives. We had a lot of fun there.
Now we are at Destin RV park, still in Florida.

The Everglades

Hey everyone! I'm back from my Everglades adventure, and it was really awesome. I'll show you some pictures I took of the things that were in the park.

That was an alligator we saw on our boat ride during the first day. There were more, but they were in bad light.

That is my parents on the boat ride to the park, and behind them, David Harraden (Everglades Adventures), our guide. He had an interesting character, and I want to give him special thanks for his stories and knowledge about wildlife.

That's what my foot looked like after the first day.

Dashel, in front, and my dad Bill, in back.

And my mom, in the back of a kayak. Well, I guess that's it for this post. I will try to post again as soon as I can.

10:45 pm. Right now I am in a hotel in the Everglades city. I have to make this quick, I only have ten minutes. We are going to get up tomorrow and eat breakfast, then head off to start kayaking with our guide. We have just packed our things and have to be at the dock really early tomorrow. This little trip within a trip will be three days long, therefore I can not post on this blog during that time. I will try to take some pictures that I'll post when I get back. It should be really fun.

Nothing really exciting yesterday. Our first day, yes, but six hours of driving-SO much fun. Here I am, sitting at a table in our travel trailer, typing this in the middle of Bowling Green, Kentucky. We were supposed to leave at 9:00 am yesterday, but um... slight change of plans to about 3:00 pm.

9:45 pm. We just finished an 11 hour drive to Tifton, Georgia. Long and boring all over again. Tomorrow we drive seven hours to the Everglades in Florida. We will leave to start a kayaking adventure on the 18th, then visit our relatives in Clearwater. Sorry I haven't put any pictures on here, anyway, though there was not much to see.

Hi everyone! My name is Gibson and I am about to go on a totally insane RV trip. We are actually going in a travel trailer, and we are going to leave early tomorrow morning at 9:00 am. It is going to be three months long and my parents are going to have to homeschool my brothers and I. We are going to travel all over the U.S. and I can't wait to see all the amazing places. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy reading the posts I put on this blog! ( If you haven't already checked, the link is www.insanervtrip.blogspot.com)
